September eBulletin—your latest media arts + culture news

In a brief filed September 22nd, the Writers Guild of America, West, the Future of Music Coalition, and NAMAC ask the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit to uphold the FCC’s order and reject the challenge brought by the USTA. Future of Music CEO (and NAMAC Board President) Casey Rae said of the brief:

“For nearly a decade, thousands of artists and independent labels have gone on record in support of strong Net Neutrality rules that ensure their ability to compete alongside the biggest companies online. Now, this same community is urging the court to uphold the FCC’s Title II framework. Without these light-touch, enforceable rules of the road, creators and fans alike will be left behind in the evolution of our digital networks.”
